I'm really worried about my friend. He rides a buttboard and I can't help him out because I'm a strictly stand-up guy. When he is making corners and enters a little to fast, he reaches a point where he can't turn the board enough. When he is on a right hander it gets real sketchy because he goes into oncoming traffic. Yesterday he came a foot or two from cars twice. I was expecting the rear to slide out or something, but the board just sticks. It's got Pink Seven'Os, so they are really grippy. Do you guys have any tips on cornering? Does he need to loosen the trucks or something? One of the corners I was right beside and behind him and my board didn't slide at all. I don't know what is going wrong.
Edit: if it helps, here's a video with him cornering. Maybe you can critique his technique.
